Phenomenal!

Our wedding catering, La Bocca Fina, was absolutely phenomenal! From the tasting to the big day, Teri Menchini was professional, attentive, and made sure all our needs were met. The food was delicious, beautifully presented, and exactly what we had hoped for. Guests are still raving about the variety and quality of the dishes from hors d’oeuvres & appetizers to main dishes and desserts. Everyone loved the selection of drinks and refreshments. The staff was friendly, efficient, and ensured the entire service ran seamlessly. They even accommodated special dietary requests without missing a beat. I would highly recommend this caterer for anyone looking to elevate their wedding with amazing food and top-notch service!

Perfection

The wedding for our daughter was 9/24/2022. Our experience with Terri at La Bocca Fina was excellent. Terri was so helpful with all aspects of the wedding dinner and reception. She was there every step of the process and on the wedding day to ensure the quality of the event.

After serving 4 absolutely delicious hors d'oeuvres (shrimp, lamb, crostini and artichokes), we chose a family style of service with a Caprese salad, tri tip, salmon, and butternut squash ravioli. We were so happy with the quality of the food and service. Totally exceeded our expectations, because usually wedding food is so-so, but La Bocca Fina served absolutely yummy food. Kudos to the chef! The chef even graciously accommodated several of our guests with dietary needs. We elected not to have a cake, rather we offered 5 desserts and each was delicious!!

Honestly, there is nothing negative to say. We even had La Bocca Fina run the the bar service and they were efficient, never with long lines for the 170 guests.

Thank you Terri and La Bocca Fina for helping to ensure that our daughter's wedding day was perfect! We highly recommend La Bocca Fina to anyone and everyone who wanting a perfect celebration!

Amazing food and wonderful service

Teri and her team catered our wedding at Montalvo earlier this month and if I had to do it all over again, I'd still choose Teri and La Bocca Fina!

Teri is just the sweetest person and it was such a pleasure to work with her throughout the whole process. As foodies, food was definitely something we wanted to be outstanding and La Bocca Fina's food definitely impressed us. Teri is willing to accommodate the menu to your tastes and budget. We even got to completely customize an hors d'oeuvre, so that was pretty cool.

Not only was her food incredible, but having worked in the wedding industry so long, her knowledge went far beyond catering. She's like a wedding planner and her valuable input helped us make some logistical as well as design decisions. We also ordered our event rentals through her connections and we were able to get a nice discount on some upgraded rentals!

The only minor complaint I have is with the colors and font she uses for her documents. She uses the cursive/calligraphy font, which makes her documents difficult to read comfortably.

I highly recommend La Bocca Fina if you're in need of a caterer!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
